Review before tendering3 power units

MARIA T JIMENEZ (USDOT 2396022) in BRANDON, FL — has findings to review before tendering. FMCSA authority, fleet size, BASIC safety measures, crash and inspection history.

  • Has active operating authority that's tenderable today (common or contract).
  • No pending authority revocation.
  • Not under an uncleared federal out-of-service or safety action.
  • BIPD on file is $750,000 — below your $1,000,000 floor (federal general-freight minimum is $750,000).
  • No cargo insurance on file. Required for many shipper contracts.
  • 1 prior insurance lapse(s) on record, most recent began 2013-12-09 — the carrier let required coverage lapse before.
  • Current BIPD policy (NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION INSURANCE CO RRG, LLC) was filed 15 day(s) after the last involuntary revocation (2026-01-08) — a refile-to-reinstate pattern worth a closer look.
  • Satisfactory safety rating.
  • Carrier is not in public SMS (insufficient inspections or withheld) — no BASIC alerts published. Absence is not a clean record.
  • Driver and vehicle out-of-service rates are at or below the national roadside average.
  • No preventable crashes in the last 24 months; recordable crash rate not available not elevated.
  • No fatal crashes in the last 24 months.
  • No link to a prior revoked authority.
  • Authority involuntarily revoked 5 times, most recent 2026-01-08 — recurring instability (typically insurance-lapse / reinstate cycles).
  • FMCSA compliance review on file dated 2020-10-05 (C).
  • Crash Indicator and Hazmat Compliance BASICs are statutorily withheld from public SMS under the FAST Act — their absence is not a clean record; use the crash-risk signals above instead.

Built from FMCSA's public Safety Management System data — guidance, not legal advice. Verify directly with the carrier and your cargo policy before tendering.
